Notes from the Fieldhttps://science.nasa.gov/missions/explorer/notes-from-the-field/Looking at Chlorophyll from Space By Compton “Jim” Tucker NASA scientists are able to study plants from space, but this wasn’t always the case. “I love using satellite data to study the Earth,” says Dr. Compton “Jim” Tucker. When Tucker was a graduate student, he and some friends discovered a new way to study photosynthesis. […]Feb 18, 2026 7:23 PM

Choosing the Right Stainless Steel Utility Sink for Heavy-Duty Usehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46297672In industrial and commercial environments, every piece of equipment plays a role in keeping operations efficient, safe, and hygienic. Among these essentials, the utility sink often works quietly in the background, yet it supports countless daily tasks. From manufacturing plants to commercial kitchens and maintenance workshops, choosing the right stainless steel utility sink for heavy-duty use can make a measurable difference in workflow and durability.Heavy-duty environments place higher demands on sinks than residential spaces. They are used for washing tools, handling raw materials, cleaning components, and managing waste liquids. A well-designed sink must withstand frequent impact, exposure to chemicals, and constant moisture without compromising performance or hygiene. This is where stainless steel stands out as a preferred material across the metal fabrication and industrial equipment sectors.One of the first factors to consider is material grade and thickness.

New Research Connects Plant Nutrition and Astronaut Gut Healthhttps://science.nasa.gov/science-research/new-research-connects-plant-nutrition-and-astronaut-gut-health/New research uncovers the connection between space agriculture and astronaut health. A study published in npj Microgravity shows how analyzing diverse datasets together can reveal insights that might otherwise be missed — in this case, linking space-grown food quality to astronaut nutrition and gut health. The paper reviewed previous studies of plants grown aboard the […]Aug 14, 2025 4:15 PM

Live or Fly a Plane in California? Help NASA Measure Ozone Pollution!https://science.nasa.gov/get-involved/citizen-science/live-or-fly-a-plane-in-california-help-nasa-measure-ozone-pollution/Ozone high in the stratosphere protects us from the Sun’s ultraviolet light. But ozone near the ground is a pollutant that harms people and plants. The San Joaquin Valley has some of the most polluted air in the country, and NASA scientists with the new Ozone Where We Live (OWWL) project are working to measure […]Jun 24, 2025 2:13 PM
